Do you want to replace the battery in the Opel Astra key? Let’s see how to replace the discharged battery inside. Press the release button of the metal key; once the metal key is out, use a screwdriver to pry between the two covers of the key (in the space where the metal key fits).

Pry until the cover comes off, then extract the worn battery with a small screwdriver, take a new one of the same size and voltage. Mount the small circuit board onto the same cover or replace it with a new one. Press on the key case until you hear it click into place.

Use the same battery as the one removed previously.
